It looks to me they generated an actual video of a person signing with ASL for each paragraph. As far as I know, there is no way to generate ASL from text, if that is what you are asking. The syntax of ASL is significantly different, although I know it has been tried. As far as the speed of downloading and displaying video, that is more a bandwidth issue. If someone has a modem, it may take a long time to download no matter what you do.

If you want to have an ASL lecture, and a text lecture, it might be wise to have the ASL lecture video be available for download. That way someone can download it first, then watch the video.
